Enough is enough
This is an act of war, doesnât matter that itâs not been officially declared as one. It calls for a scale and intensity of response comparable to Londonâs, where the number of deaths was actually fewer than Delhiâs and far, far fewer than Mumbaiâs in 1993. This paper has consistently waged a war for peace, and we remain committed to that path. But itâs equally clear that peace cannot be a one-way road. There are indications that the perpetrators of the serial blasts may have been schooled in jihadi hatred on Pakistani soil. The burden of evidence points to the Lashkar-e-Toiba; one of its offshoots has already claimed responsibility for the crime. LeT had tried to mar August 15 and were waiting for the next big celebration to hit India. The group has sleeper cells across the country and doesnât necessarily depend on Kashmir to ferry in terrorists. It can call in operatives based in Nepal and Bangladesh. That it continues to enjoy Islamabadâs patronage is no secret. Posted by: john 2005-10-30 |
